About Us

Hey! We’re a small but mighty team of three at Askassist, and we’re on the hunt for a fourth musketeer to join our virtual crew. Picture this: we’re the kind of girls who crack jokes over video calls while smashing through to-do lists. We may work from our own home offices, but we’re always a click away from each other, chatting and collaborating throughout the day.

We’re not just colleagues; we’re a work family that loves what we do. And when we can, we ditch the screens and meet up in person for some real-life fun and team bonding.

Sound like your cup of tea? We’re looking for a savvy Virtual Assistant to hop on board as a freelancer. It’s the perfect gig if you’re after flexibility and the chance to ramp up your workload as you show us what you’ve got. If you’re ready to join a bunch of friendly faces who know how to work hard and have a laugh, Askassist might just be your new home away from home!

Please take the time to consider if you have what it takes to be a virtual assistant – it’s not easy, it’s not something you can juggle with young children at home and it’s not something you can slip in to your evening.
